Make Change Work for You | by Madisyn Taylor Transformation is a universal constant that affects our lives from the moment we are born until we leave earthly existence behind. At the root of all growth, we find change. Occasionally, change and the circumstances leading up to it are a source of extraordinary joy, but more often than not they provoke feelings of discomfort, fear, or pain. Though many changes are unavoidable, we should not believe that we are subject to the whims of an unpredictable universe. It is our response to those circumstances that will dictate the nature of our experiences. At the heart of every transformation, no matter how chaotic, there is substance. When we no longer resist change and instead regard it as an opportunity to grow, we find that we are far from helpless in the face of it. Our role as masters of our own destinies is cemented when we choose to make change work in our favor. Yet before we can truly internalize this power, we must accept that we cannot hide from the changes taking place all around us. Existence as we know it will come to an end at one or more points in our lives, making way for some new and perhaps unexpected mode of being. This transformation will take place whether or not we want it to, and so it is up to us to decide whether we will open our eyes to the blessings hidden amidst disorder or close ourselves off from opportunities hiding behind obstacles. To make change work for you, look constructively at your situation and ask yourself how you can benefit from the transformation that has taken place. As threatening as change can seem, it is often a sign that a new era of your life has begun. If you reevaluate your plans and goals in the days or weeks following a major change, you will discover that you can adapt your ambition to the circumstances before you and even capitalize on these changes. Optimism, enthusiasm, and flexibility will aid you greatly here, as there is nothing to be gained by dwelling on what might have been. Change can hurt in the short term but, if you are willing to embrace it proactively, its lasting impact will nearly always be physically, spiritually, and intellectually transformative. | DailyOM Course Spotlight by Laura Katleman-Prue I want to let you in on a little secret: you don't need willpower to stay at your ideal weight for the rest of your life! You just need to change your diet (rather than diet) and learn to keep the mature part of you in charge of your eating. Now it's time to lose the excess weight and get the body you've always wanted--but not just or a month or two--for life!! Imagine not being able to gain weight. "Impossible!" you say? Not so. Many of my students can't gain weight again because they eat with health in mind and no longer think about food. Thinking leads to desire which leads to action. If you stop thinking about food, you can't desire it, and you can't gain weight. Using the simple five-minute daily exercises in this course, you will learn an easy way of eating that will serve you well for the rest of your life. Part II is about changing your diet forever, rather than going on a diet, which is temporary. When you permane! ntly change your diet, you never again regain your lost weight.
